Step-by-step recipe for raviolis:
In a mixing bowl, sift the flour, add the salt and mix. Then make a hole in the middle with two fingers.
In a separate bowl, crack the eggs, beat with a fork, and add the water and mix. Then pour the egg mix in the flour.
Knead the dough for 10 minutes, flouring the surface as needed.
Make a ball, wrap it with cling film and let it rest in the fridge for 30 minutes or so.
Cut the dough into 2 pieces (4 if your child is little). Roll them out into thin strips (2-3mm) and fill with the ravioli filling.
Brush edges with some egg wash, close the raviolis and seal them individually. Make sure that there is no holes or filling coming out when you seal them.
